Mexican National Middleweight Championship
The Mexican National Middleweight Championship is a professional wrestling championship controlled by the Comisión de Box y Lucha Libre Mexico D.F.. The official weight definition of the middleweight division in Mexico is from. The championship was created in 1933 and was promoted regularly until December 8, 2008. Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre had control of the championship from its creation until 1992, at which point it was transferred to Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. The championship's history between 1933 and 1937 is only partially known; for some periods it is unclear who held the championship. The first champion was Yaqui Joe; records of the identity of his opponent for the championship are unclear. In early 2009, AAA stopped promoting all Mexican National Championships, opting to focus on its AAA-branded championships instead. In 2021, the championship was reactivated by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, with Templario defeating Dragón Rojo Jr. to win the vacant title.
There have been at least 63 championship reigns, and 38 wrestlers have held the championship. El Santo and Octagón both held it four times, the most for any wrestler. The longest confirmed reign belongs to El Santo. His third reign lasted 1,758 days from May 31, 1956, to March 24, 1961. The shortest reign lasted 11 days; Perro Aguayo held it from February 28 to March 11, 1977. As with all professional wrestling championships, matches for the Mexican National Tag Team Championship were not won or lost competitively but by a pre-planned ending to the match, the outcome of which was determined by the CMLL bookers and match makers. Occasionally, organizers of a promotion declared the championship vacant, which meant there was no champion for a period. This was either due to a storyline, or real-life problems such as an injured champion being unable to defend the championship or they had left the company. All title matches took place under two out of three falls rules.
